I think they still call the ones on TV soaps, and it is derived from the radio soap operas. I listened to them as well and so did my mother. And Saturday morning cartoons were wonderful! I listened to them while my kids watched. There was a lot of good TV for children back then. Captain Kangaroo was a favorite at our house, and Lassie, Rin-Tin Tin, and the Mickey Mouse Club.
